This module complements Algorithm::Diff by providing three-way merge and diff functions.

Algorithm::MinMax finds the minimum and maximum of a given array with at most 3n/2 - 2 comparisons, where n is the number of elements of the array.

This module will create sorting networks, a sequence of comparisons that do not depend upon the results of prior comparisons. There are several algorithms to generate sorting networks. This module has three of them: Bose and Nelson's, Hibbard's, and Batcher's Merge Exchange. It also has networks that were found to be superior in comparison count to those generated automatically by these algorithms. There is a flexible formatting function that will allow you to print out your network in many ways (see documentation). There is also a graphical output function that will return the network in an encapsulated postscript, SVG, or text form.

Algorithm::SVM implements a Support Vector Machine for Perl. Support Vector Machines provide a method for creating classification functions from a set of labeled training data, from which predictions can be made for subsequent data sets.

Algorithm::LCS reimplements Algorithm::Diff's core loop in XS, and provides a simple OO interface to it.

Alien::SDL can be used to detect and get configuration settings from an installed SDL and related libraries.

Algorithm::MarkovChain implements a class capable of creating a Markov chain, and then generating output based on it. For more information consult the Algorithm::MarkovChain(3) man page.

Alias is a perl module that performs aliasing services. It is useful for those of you that are tired of dereferencing hash-based object attributes, or wish perl could make-do with fewer $, -> and {} things, or are a little scared of using typeglobs, or want the freedom to put what you want, when you want in the symbol table without having to deal with weird syntax, or need to use scalar constants in your program since you don't trust yourself from changing $PI (heh). Most notably, there is a C<attr> function that installs a whole hash on the symbol table with implicit localization. This allows you to access object attributes without having to deref the object every time, as in most other OO languages.

Alzabo is a suite of modules with two core functions. Its first use is as a data modeling tool. Through either a schema creation GUI, a perl program, or reverse engineering, you can create a set objects to represent a schema. Its second function is as an RDBMS to object mapping system. Once you have created a schema, you can use the Alzabo::Runtime::Table and Alzabo::Runtime::Row classes to access its data. These classes offer a high level interface to common operations such as SQL SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, and UPDATE commands.

This module delivers the basic needs for any daemon on UNIX systems. There are other standard daemon implementations available on CPAN, with as main common difference that this module is not dedicated to a specific task. By using Log::Report, you can easily redirect error reports to any logging mechanism you like.
